HAIM

grimes

album is really good btw. Probably the best songs on it have already been released but front to back a really strong and consistent piece

yep

i think "if i could change your mind" is probably their best song

has it l£ak£d or have you guys got copies?

i've got a promo idk about those other bros

i don't think it's leaked

really disappointed that better off got left off, i think its their best

that's my least favorite song of theirs. v glad "go slow" is on this thing but i also rep for "send me down" and might've preferred it to its twin on the record "my song"

weirdo

love the Lindstrom and Prins Thomas remix of "Forever."

most curious about the title track which according to wiki has a jessie ware co-write.

!

A lot of the time I think Better Off is their best as well. Sorry to see it was left off.

mean but fun

I've been those guys once or twice, so I'm totally cool with laughing at the ridiculousness of it.

why'd she have to do j0rdan s. like that?

hahaha thought the same thing. did someone already say they looked the same on ilx or something? idk. but they kinda do

i like when he mouths "forever"

concept A-
execution C+

^^^

wont make me popular around here but that's basically how i feel about the band itself (except the remixes, which are all so good they make the originals seem kinda drab)

yeah, a little mean, kind of funny, not done that well

the video I mean

The band's execution could be better too, but I feel like it has been getting better and is now pretty close to awesome.

wont make me popular around here

somebody had to speak up max

Didn't realise when watching the video that the guy with the ring is Booth Jonathan from Girls. I always hated that guy!

Agree that the video does not work at all. There's something annoying about the over the top reactions of the guys and it's really grating when the Haim girls sing "I know that you're gonna be okay anyway" in that really insincere way. I'm aware I'm reading too much into just a video but it kind of put me off a song I really liked. I'm sure I'll get over it, just surprised how much I disliked it.

The video is pretty funny but the joke gets a bit repetitive. For some reason I like the song MORE now than when I previously heard it without visuals. Maybe the light-hearted nature of the video makes me perceive the song as breezy and light-hearted, whereas before that may not have been my response. Then again, maybe it's just a case of watching the video twice has enabled the song to grow on me (I had previously listened to it a few weeks ago about three times).

I'm not completely sure what the "joke" is tbh -- is it "give me a break 20-something brooklyn indie boy, this was obviously not some kind of 'forever' relationship?" Is it just funny because it's dorky looking guys getting overemotional?

Both of those, probably.

i'd say the latter

lol indie guys b*hurt over video making fun of indie guys

Song has grown on me btw

i like seeing grown men cry

Great song, annoyingly stupid video.

being an asshole in videos to sig others is awesome but only if u make it look cool imo. they should have been more derisive

it's also just casting guys in a scenario that is stereotypically reserved for girls

how does this compare to that avril video where she's being unnecessarily mean to that other girl?

that one makes me mad. oh, so it's OK to be a horrible bitch to this poor girl because she's typed as square? it was like the definitive ass-end of the "punk" ethos.

"if i could change your mind" is as good as any of their pre-album singles imo

I forgot how much I liked them after the EOY poll, remembered again a couple of weeks ago
don't save me is such a jam

looking forward to new album so I can listen to them endlessly

saw them in boston a few nights ago, they seemed like the most wkiw people alive, predictably. most of their new songs sounded more like led zeppelin than steely dan, but i was very much into it.

yeah don't save me is my fav, too

the wire is super catchy, seems like a song i've heard before but it's not
